Abstract
A flipping pet toy is provided having a first bore and a second bore parallelly disposed to the first bore. A series of ribs interstitial spaces there between are concentrically disposed about a central axis of the bores. A thin and laterally elongated body member forms a resilient, thin walled body circumscribing the bores such that said thin wall is capable of generating a resilient, springing action.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1. A pet chew toy comprising:
a thin and laterally elongated body member and forming a resilient, thin walled body circumscribing at least one orifice such that said thin wall is capable of generating a resilient, springing action;
a liquid flavoring impregnating said body member and dispenses through a plurality of apertures formed in said body member; and
a plurality of ribs extending outward from said thin wall.
2. The pet chew toy of claim 1 , further comprising impregnating said body member with an aroma.
3. The pet chew toy of claim 1 , wherein said toy is formed by extrusion molding.
4. The pet chew toy of claim 3 , wherein said toy is formed from thermoplastic.
5. The pet chew toy of claim 1 , further comprising:
said thin and laterally elongated body member forming a resilient, thin walled body circumscribing at least a second orifice such that said thin wall is capable of generating a resilient, springing action.
6. The pet chew toy of claim 5 , further comprising:
a plurality of ribs extending outward from said thin wall.
7. The pet chew toy of claim 6 , further comprising:
a plurality of interstitial recesses between said ribs extending inward to from said thin wall.
8. The pet chew toy of claim 1 , further comprising:
a plurality of interstitial recesses between said ribs extending, inward to said thin wall.
9. The pet chew toy of claim 8 , further comprising:
a plurality of interstitial recesses between said ribs extending inward to from said thin wall.
10. A flipping pet chew toy comprising:
a first annular sidewall circumscribing a first orifice, said first sidewall forming a resilient thin walled body circumscribing such that said thin wall is capable of generating a resilient, springing action; and
a second annular sidewall circumscribing a second orifice, said second sidewall forming a resilient thin walled body circumscribing such that said thin wall is capable of generating a resilient, springing action;
wherein said first annular sidewall is connected to said second annular sidewall.
11. The flipping pct chew toy of claim 10 , wherein a liquid flavoring impregnating said body member and dispenses through a plurality of apertures fobrmed in said body member.
12. The flipping pet chew toy of claim 10 , wherein said first annular sidewall is connected to said second annular sidewall in a generally symmetric fashion about a centerpoint.
13. The flipping pet chew toy of claim 10 , further comprising:
a plurality of ribs extending outward from said thin wall.
14. The flipping pet chew toy of claim 10 , further comprising:
a plurality of interstitial recesses between said ribs extending inward to from said thin wall.
15. The flipping pet chew toy of claim 10 , wherein said first annular sidewall is connected to said second, annular sidewall such that said resilient sidewalls can be conformed to a generally symmetric shape about a centerpoint.
16. A pet chew toy comprising:
a thin walled laterally elongated body member forming a resilient body circumscribing at least a one orifice such that said resiliency of said thin wall is capable of generating a springing action; and
a plurality of shaped features formed an outer surface of said thin wall such that said features are capable of creating a flipping-like motion to said springing action when directed against a surface
wherein said plurality of shaped features comprises a plurality of ribs extending outward from said thin wall.
17. The pet chew toy of claim 16 , wherein said toy is capable of being formed by extrusion molding.
18. The pet chew toy of claim 17 , wherein said toy is formed from thermoplastic.
19. The pet chew toy of claim 16 , further comprising a plurality of interstitial recesses between paid ribs extending inward to said thin wall.
20. The pet chew toy of claim 19 , wherein said plurality of shaped features further comprises a plurality of interstitial recesses between said ribs extending inward to from said thin wall.Cited by (0)
